Conversion annoncée de 5 000 places de garde non subventionnées en places subventionnées, dont jusqu'à 500 en CPE.
Issue
Childcare and family support
Access to CPEs and daycares, subsidized spaces, waiting lists, the childcare-educator workforce, and financial support for families.
Why it matters
The network continues to adjust the supply of spaces and admission priority rules; in 2026 Quebec launched a conversion of 5,000 non-subsidized spaces into subsidized spaces.
Documented party positions
